Statements from the leading veterinarian immunologist in the country Dr. Schultz about vaccines and giving them each year." A practice that was started many years ago and that lacks scientific validity or verification is ANNUAL revaccination. Almost without exception there is no immunologic requirement for ANNUAL revaccination. Immunity to viruses persists for years or for the life of the animal...Furthermore, revaccination with most viral vaccines fails to stimulate an anamnestic(secondary) response... The practice of annual vaccination in our opinion should be considered of questionable efficacy. The ANNUAL recommendation of revaccination was made WITHOUT any scientific validation of the need to boost immunity so frequently. The patient receives no benefit and may be placed at serious risk when unnecessary vaccine is given. FEW and NO scientific studies have demonstrated a need for dogs and cats to be revaccinated."

So why do vets do this? Because its the almighty dollar. If they stop giving vaccines, they will lose money! Stand up for your pets and say NO.
